Of thing which may be done this fall

portant a drainage. It it true that all
the land mav not be drained this win

drained this winter, is tl at any reaon
why ths ten acres which seed it moit
should not be drained? Or.ifnot ten, then
five, or as much ai can be drained; '

costing Mrs. Lyddie Jones, of Fort

afternoon, and aa

Mrs. Jones, lirecmpany with aeveral
of her relatiyesrrived In the city yes
terday morning on the gasolene boat
"Janie L" and tied up at Holliater &
Coxa' dock, h During the early part of
the day her child which in. only a few
months old, was greatly harraseed by a
cough. Shortly after the noon hour the
little one became almost choked. The
mother thinking that perhaps anapplica
tion of hot water would relieve it, seii
eJ a cup full of what she supposed waa
water and placed it on the stove. The
liquid failed to boil during the time she
thought would be required and thinking
that perhaps' the fire had burned out
attempted to replenish it Upon op
ening the stove door, however, there
was a blinding flash and she was en
veloped in a mass of flames. ( , ,
" Crazed by the pain of the burns she
ran shrieking from the cabin of the
boat and plunge j over its side into the
water. Upon arising U the surface
her husband' succeeded in catching hold
of her and carried her to Innd. It was
seen that her injuries were of euib a
nature that, the quickest medical aid
possible was - required andyabe was
placed in a wagon and rushed to a phy
sician's office where medical attention
was rendered her. ; ::; . v -r'r; . .. I
Several other members of the party
were on the boat at the time and all of
these were mora or lees injured by the
flimes, none however, as serious as was
Mrs, Jones. The fire department was
called out and extinguished the flames
en the boat before it wu very badly
damaged. ' ' 4

Passing of Enoch Wadsworth
: " " - .:
About noon yesterday, . the startling
report waa heard about the city, "Mr.
Enoch Wadsworth Is dedj" The re
ply was, "Impossible for Mr. Wads-

seemingly impossible and incredible
the report, it was a sad, true fact, for

Wadsworth reaching the etore of J. M.
Hnrrison, in apparent perfect health.
was found in a retiring room- about an
hour later, dead, due to brain apoplexy
He would have been 68 eraod in
Dec. 22nd. A wife, two half broihurs,
Mess Ed and Albert Wadsworth of
this county, and a half sister, Mrs.
Cobb of Kinston, survive him. Y
Enoch Wadsworth waa a farmer he
fore coming to New Bern and invest

ly Increased in amount and value. A
Confederate Veteran, a member of Elks
Lo'tg", comprised his prominence, and
yet in all the best sod higher duties of
citizenship, he bore his part, quietly but
with the interest of a citizen.' At home
h's companionship will be sadly missed,
No children, but a loving wife, Among
hit brrthern at the Elks, no more pleas
ant aaao:iate could be found. And upon
the street, there was ever the kindly
greeting to young and old. So in an
hour "good day" and "'good bye," but
in the sadness and sorrow, thsre 1 ever
to be the sweet remembrance of ths
kindly heart that set.t fuch lait greet
ings to those who met him, before he
so gently patsed into the beyond, away
from mortal eyes and greetings, to his
reward. .
